Horsepower: 425

The heralded return of Dodge’s muscle-car legend, Challenger, is mostly for the best, especially if you’re into Hemi V8-induced debauchery. Go ahead and order an extra set of the $40,095 SRT8’s meaty 255/45 20-inch Goodyears for the rear, because you just know you’re going to smoke ‘em like its April 20th. Opt for more dash than flash in your technique and the SRT8’s 425-horsepower, 6.1-liter Hemi V8 barks from rest to 60 mph in 4.7 seconds -- and that’s with the automatic. For 2009, a six-speed, pistol-grip manual is a welcomed option in the otherwise disappointing interior. No matter; most folks will only see your taillights anyway.
